Update. I asked a friend of mine to take a look at the Lemmy.world front page via his browser (vanilla Firefox) and it works as expected.

I also did an earlier test on a chromium browser and it also works as expected.

It might just be that my browser is breaking stuff, which I need to investigate deeper.

When trying to access Lemmy.world from the desktop, I see this blank-ish page (see attached screenshot). And whenever I try to click Subscribed, Local, or All, the same error message pops up on the lower-left-hand side of my screen:

SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data

I wonder if it’s connected to the work our admins have been doing recently.

For disclosure, I am using LibreWolf and a userscript to make Lemmy pages look like old.reddit. I’ve turned off the userscript to check if the error disappears, but to no avail.

I may have missed more details that might be helpful, but I’m willing to give such details.

    No, it doesn’t go away. What I do instead is check my profile to see if my reply has been reflected on my comments list there. If it’s reflected, I deem it safe to close the tab where I made the reply.
